Out of the Mouth of Babes and Sucklings …

Public relations was yesterday the subject of a nice wee tale by David Leask, standing in for Ken Smith on The Herald’s diary this week.

Wrote Leask: “Pity hard-working Zoe Corsi, who, among other duties, handles PR for Donald Trump in the north-east of Scotland. Zoe has been putting in the hours recently. That hasn’t pleased her six-year-old daughter.

“‘Mummy, why do you always have to work?’ asked little Francesca. So we can have a nice life, replied Zoe. ‘Yes, but couldn’t you do something more important?’, countered Francesca.

‘Like helping people? Or fixing things?’”
